Mystery 32 Open Eleusis \u2013 Oral History Seminar \u201cElefsina tells her memories\u201d<\/h3>\n

How was life in our city when factory machines could be heard everywhere? When the smells from the chimneys came into the house? When the workers\u2019 parties were held in the factory yards? Eleusis is changing, the industries are disappearing and the life of the city is changing, but the memories of the people are still alive. Can we take firm steps in the present if we do not know our past?<\/p>\n

In the context of \u201cMystery 32 OPEN ELEUSIS \u2013 One Documentary, Many Histories<\/a>\u201d, the first oral history introduction meeting entitled \u201cEleusis tells its memories\u201d was\u00a0 organized at the Old Railway Station of Eleusis with the aim of creating an oral history group of the city.<\/p>\n

The participants, under the guidance of historian Tasoula Verbeniotis and with the support of cinematographer Michalis Kastanidis, were introduced to oral history and\u00a0 interview techniques, aiming to create an audio-visual archive of oral testimonies of the city\u2019s residents.<\/p>\n
